Well my laptop for a odd reason doesn't work when I try to install Maplestory. But when I play Maplestory on my other computer it works perfectly fine. And I really want to play Maplestory on my laptop, so how do I put Maplestory on a USB drive if it's POSSIBLE. BTW, if it's possible will a 1GB USB drive work? -Thanks xD Edit: So if I get a USB that's 2GB+, then how exactly do I install Maplestory ON to the USB Drive, not the MSSetup into the USB. Cause for some reason I always get an error installing, not downloading.

copy & paste. and maplestory is bigger than 1 GB, so you'll need a bigger one.

You could put the setup for MapleStory onto a USB, but it's over 1GB. Since you'll have to download MapleStory onto your laptop, I reccommend that you purchase a 2GB+ Flash drive.

A 1 gb USB wont work becuase all the .wz files add up to about 1.2 gb so i would reccomend a 2gb USB flash drive.

I tried that and it works, but you will need something bigger than a 1 GB probably. 1. Open your folders to where the folder "Nexon" is, probably on Local Disk 2. Open you USB Drive file Located in My Computer 3. Drag Nexon folder to your USB File, and it will start copying Please don't be angry with me if I'm wrong. P.S. This is almost exactly how I did it and it worked for me.

Drag+Drop for installations.

Yes, its possible. No, pretty sure you'd need more than 1 gig. Don't understand how people have USB's that are only 1 gig nowadays, though..

I really don't remember if I did do anything else, but that is just in case it doesn't work. P.s. Depending on how fast your cmoputer is, it can take up to 6 minutes.

4gb works wonders :D too bad my other computer isnt fast or good enough for maple to run on it -.- got 3 4gb drives for no reason

hamster1470 06/19/09 + PM | QUOTE | PERMALINK | REPORT

Oh yea, DarkQuill is right, you need to either go to Maplestory.exe every time or make a shortcut on your USB.
